Meet Maple – Sweet, Loyal, and Ready for a Fresh Start Maple is a very sweet Australian Shepherd mix who recently came to the shelter when her family went through a divorce. She’s now hoping to find a new home where she can feel safe, loved, and part of the family again. Maple is described as loving and protective, the kind of dog who bonds closely with her people and wants to be by your side. She is crate trained and sleeps in her crate at night, and she will bark or whine when she needs to go outside, which helps her communicate when it’s potty time. Like many smart herding breeds, Maple does have one habit her new family will need to help her work on — she has been known to chase or follow the family’s car when it leaves. With patience, supervision, and some training, this is something that can be improved as she settles into a stable routine. Maple will ride in the car, but she feels most comfortable when she’s crated during the ride. Once she knows she’s secure, she does much better traveling. What Maple really wants is a family to love and protect, a place where she can feel safe, and people who will give her the patience and care she deserves as she adjusts to her new life. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who will devote her whole heart to you, Maple may be the perfect addition to your family. Come meet Maple and let her show you just how sweet she really is.
